Wandance, Volume 1 by Coffee

5.0

Wandance is a love letter to dance and following your passions even if you have anxiety. Inspired by his new friend Wanda, Kaboku sets out to conquer his fear of being noticed by anyone ever to join the school dance club and chase his newfound love for hip-hop dance. Dance allows Kaboku a chance to express himself without his stutter causing trouble, and it slowly brings out his confidence. Will he be ready in time to score a spot in the upcoming dance contest?

Wanda and Kaboku are both awkward, cute, and devoted to practicing the things they love. They are sweet characters I’m happy to root for. Kaboku also has friends that support his new dream and I like seeing positive friendships represented. I also adored the scenes of dance in motion. This is a hard thing to accomplish in a still medium, but Coffee does a great job showing movement through the panels. Can’t wait for the next volume to be translated! Thanks to NetGalley for allowing me an early read of Vol 1!
